2-15 B Ports Blocked [message #29256] Sun, 02 June 2024 18:50 Go to next message

Just bought my first Kustom rig, K250-1 with 2-15 B cab loaded with JBL D140's. I think the amp and cab sound pretty great as is. But when I removed the back to check the speaker brand, I noticed the ports are blocked. It looks like work that was done a long time ago, and I am wondering if perhaps it was done in the factory. I have pictures to upload, but the icon in the post form doesn't seem to be working for me. Did they block ports depending on what speakers were used?

Thanks in advance for the insight,
Bobby

It overhangs the cabinet by maybe 1/4" on each side.

Early heads and  vertical cabinets where 11 pleats wide, later ones are 12 wide.
